don't have second dec alpha

same error bringing up desplay on a sparc (SunOS 4.1.2)
logged onto the alpha, gdb gives 
#0  XShmCreateImage () at XShm.c:327

I can perform any further tests you wish, can even give
you a temporary account on our machine if you want to
do some testing yourself remotely. 

Question: have you had feedback from any other alpha users
who are having this problem? Why were there alpha binaries
for previous versions of geomview but the recent version?
Just curious.
